♫ Steve McDonald - Sons of Somerled ♫

The song Sons of Somerled by Steve McDonald with pictures from scotland an ireland

Lyrics:

From the Dalriadan line
Through the centuries there we find
A Scotsman born with Viking name
Born to rule through love and pain

Hail to ye sons of Somerled
Hail to ye sons of Somerled

Ruling from the Isle of Man
lslay was the place they'd ...make their stand
After almost twenty years
He rid the Isles of Norsemen
..then and there

Hail to ye sons of Somerled
Hail to ye sons of Somerled

Through the timeless history
Fighting for their destiny (somerled)
Images fly through my head
Images of Somerled... somerled

Hail to ye sons of Somerled
Hail to ye sons of Somerled

The warrior kings lived by the sword
From hill to loch and dark fjord
Battling 'til his life he shed
Leaving the throne
To the sons of somerled
